I think a good many of you know that Sherry, Kittie & I (and tons of other fun people!) will be going the the Pampered Stamper’s Retreat in October. Jen70 decided that it would be a great idea to have some pre-gathering challenges. She’s so smart 🙂 . The weekend swap will be featuring Christmas and Holiday cards and so are the warm up challenges.

Here’s my Tent Card (in non traditional Christmas Colors).

The image was stamped and colored with Copic Markers. I added some little dots of Diamond Stickles for bling. The snowflakes were stamped on the white base panel in Cameo Coral and Not Quite Navy.

The next card is one I did for today’s Color Challenge (which also worked for the Non Traditional color challenge).

For this card I stamped the image on River Rock CS. I watercolored the snowman & snow on the ground with Whisper White Craft Ink and an Aquapainter. The rest of the image was colored with Copic Markers.
